Now you can record digital audio directly into your computer, or play digital audio from your computer through littleBits modules!
Remix music from any audio software (like iTunes, Spotify and GarageBand)
Integrate your Synth Kit with common audio workstations (Ableton, ProTools, Audacity, Traktor, Max/MSP)
The w27 USB I/O module features 44.1K / 12-bit audio conversion for high quality sound. It is also “DC coupled”, which means that in addition to sending and receiving signals like music, it can also send and receive control voltages. This allows you to use software programs like Max, PD, and CV Toolkit with w27 USB I/O to control littleBits modules by creating “virtual” littleBits modules like sequencers, low frequency oscillators, and much more. You can also control the aforementioned programs with littleBits modules to create hardware controls for your software.
The w27 USB I/O module will appear to your computer as an audio interface and its input and output routing can be selected as with any other audio interface. The module can only be selected as either an input or output device at a given time but multiple USB I/O modules can be used at once.
